Local blossoms

 


Though the Old Depot may have it's Christmas ice-cycles still hanging on the eves, the redbud says, "It's Springtime in Black Mountain."

Across the street by a parking lot a dogwood shows it's blooms.




I cropped this one for the header (which phone readers don't get apparently, nor the right side column)

An older tree blossoms with the Fifth Third Bank in the background.

Today's quote: 

From Clara Barton, nurse, founder of the American Red Cross

 "The door that nobody else will go in at, seems always to swing open widely for me."

    1. They are so beautiful to see in the mostly grey woods...except the tops of trees are starting to green up.

    1. Redbuds are really delicate, and hard to photograph, I think. Have a great Easter weekend.

  3. Tablet readers get the header and side panel although some of us probably don’t notice them much.

    It looks appropriately Easter-ish there, so enjoy the weekend.

    1. Thanks for letting me know the status of blogs on tablets. My mini-iPad has no battery life, nor can it be upgraded any more, so only read library books on it, while plugged in! Considering whether a tablet or newer iPad would be a good way to blog. I do need a real keyboard to type.

  7. Beautiful blossoms. We don't get redbuds here - our loss, I think.
